On their website it says it contains among various capacitors, a fet, and a soviet germanium transistor. So can it be a simple jfet preamp with a germanium overdrive of some sort? Do you know anything that might get close to it, if tuned properly? From what i understand the mild overdrive in sound happens more in the mid-low range freq. That could be dialed in with certain filtering, right?

What parts do you see on the gutshot?

Ps: There is also this JJ-150 pedal which does a similar job i think. It is said to imitate the sound of an EH-150.
